If you ride frequently and aggressively, and want one of the best cycling shorts available to women, then check out the award-winning Bella. These shorts feature Terry's breathable Flex Air chamois, six curvy panels, elastic-free front waist yoke and soft, matte performance material.

This is the second pair that I have bought from Nashbar. They are comfortable and the waistband hits perfectly just below the waist. The edge of the shorts stay nice and snug on your thigh and not too tight. They are just fantastic!

I just finished the MS150 ride in Colorado. I had never ridden that far and was warned about the discomfort of sitting in a saddle that long. I bought these shorts and simply put... my bottom is about the only thing not screaming at me after a 150 mile ride! Love these shorts!!!

Over the years, I have purchased various cycling bottoms, particularly padded cycling skorts because I did not like the way that my legs looked in cycling shorts. The skorts provided a cover-up.

Now it is time to say good-bye to all of those wrap-style cycling skorts - I'll keep the plain ones. After discovering the Terry Bella short, these will be my go-to bottoms for all means of cycling, from indoors to outdoors.

I had my eye on these shorts after reading the overwhelmingly positive reviews here and on other sites, as well as friends telling me how great Terry shorts are. They sounded like the best thing since sliced bread for my next century ride. They were pricey so I waited until they were on sale and ordered 2 pairs. I even paid for express shipping so I could test them out right away! Well, on a 50 mile ride, I was very aware of the chamois' presence and the edge where the chamois is stiched to the shorts. These are things I have never noticed with other shorts, even during a century ride. I wanted to like these shorts and I thought maybe I hadn't lubed enough, so I tested them again today. I could feel the edge of the chamois rubbing after only 15 miles! The design of the chamois is such that there are very definite edges and I can feel them. To say that I am disappointed is an understatement.

I ordered these because the reviews were very good for them. I was not disappointed. These are the most comfortable cycling shorts I own. I chose them for my 100 mile ride and it was a good choice. I was very comfortable the whole ride. These dry quickly, the material smooth and nice against the skin, the chamois is very comfortable - not extremely bulky. I tend to grab these for my longer rides (40+ miles). I will order another pair for sure!

I purchased these shorts because I have the longer knickers and I like the chamois Terry uses in them. My biggest issue with all Terry products is that the sizing seems off. My waist measures about 6 inches larger than the size chart indicates yet they're still too big - specifically in the waist. The rest seems to fit as it should. Beyond the sizing issue, I really love these. They aren't too long or too short and I can wear them for hours without having chafing issues. For me the padding is just right... It's neither too thick nor too thin. I just finished an almost 55 mile bike ride and I have absolutely no pain. A positive, certainly, in my book.

Oh my gosh. I purchased this product based on the great reviews it got and the Terry reputation. I am looking for a pair of shorts for my first century ride or even something I can train in. I wore these for a training ride that was about 30 miles, mostly up hill. I could tell within the first couple of miles that I was going to be in trouble. There was not enough padding - at least in the right places and the chamois did not breath causing a terrible rash that did not go away for days. Naked would have been better than that rash. I am so disappointed in these shorts.
